At Nature School, learning is...
Play-Based
Nature School recognizes the importance of play in a child’s development, and its integral role in their cognitive, physical, social and emotional well-being. As said by Albert Einstein, “Play is the highest form of research”.
Inquiry-Based
Nature School focuses on inquiry-based learning which builds on children’s natural curiosity about the world in which they live. It places their questions and ideas at the centre of the learning experience.
